A Paint Palette Cupcake Station. Well, every so often I have these bright ideas; let’s call them “genius mama moments”.
GENIUS MAMA MOMENTS
These moments are called genius mama moments because, as I am sure you can all attest to, these moments, well, they are quite rare – post kids ;) Something about the kiddos eating up your brain. For example, I may or may not remember to put deodorant on (apologizing ahead of time!), but I sure can sing you the theme song to the Wonderpets. Priorities – HA!
These great ideas usually come to me of all places in the shower…hmmm, wait…this is all starting to make sense now. My only time ALONE is when bright ideas happen. It sounds like the answer to everything may be to take more showers every day ;)
GREAT IDEA!
Sooooo, what do you think this is the perfect thing for?! Other than an artist’s paint palette?! Do you give up?! Are you intrigued?!
Why, a cupcake decorating station for little Miss V, OF COURSE, specifically a Paint Palette Cupcake Station.
This is what you’ll need to make this fab idea for you next birthday party, or cupcake party, or just simply because. Because hey, why not add some simple fun to the day with a Paint Palette Cupcake Station?!
- a cupcake
- some assorted toppings, like Rainbow Nerds, Chocolate Jimmies, Rainbow Nonpareils, Confetti Sprinkles, Snowflake Sprinkles, M&M Candy, Assorted Sixlets
- a plastic paint palette (1 for each child if using for a birthday party)

Yum! That looks good. I’d love it if you would consider sharing it with our Summer Recipes linky party. We’re two blogs sharing one combined linky party for double exposure.

Thanks Jodi! Love the feedback! I had a playgroup over and they each had a cupcake to decorate, it worked out amazingly well :)
